Tags: help

It seems sites use different symbols for markdown, so what dose this site use for comments?

    GitHub Flavored Markdown Spec variant - Cheatsheet

    With some custom enhancement, e.g. ~tildes for groups, /u/cfabbro and @cfabbro for users

    We also only have limited inline html element support though, e.g. <a href="https://test.com">test</a> = test works but not <tables> yet.

    Proper documentation for all this stuff is something I plan to work on soon. Sorry for not having any of it available right now and we understand how confusing that can be but we just haven't had time to work on it yet.

      I'd be willing to help create that if you're cool with just a markdown doc.

        Markdown doc would be perfect, that's how I generate the page on blog.tildes.net and docs.tildes.net anyway, and I'd definitely like to have a "Formatting help" type of page available on the Docs...

            Just a minor nit-pick. I just like to tell folks to always use **bold** for bold and _italics_ for italics. That way, there's no confusion if someone wants bold in italics(_**bold** in italics_)....

            Also because bold is *bold* in Org mode.. so preferring to use asterisks to do the same thing in both :)

    Do you mean like personal code comments?

    <!--
    hello I am a comment and wont appear
    -->
    

    Or do you mean like comments in here? I believe the site uses a variation of Github markdown, which you can find a cheatsheet here
